Tesla in ‘Code Red Situation’ as Sell-Off Exceeds 20%
- Thread starter Scorpio

Makes perfect sense!
Not much to live up to then? It's like the world thinks they have patented the electric car and all the great technologies supporting it!
18% of the market and worth more than all competitors combined! What could go wrong?

This is my thing with TLSA... I'm sure that in the end, @ least for a good while, they will be one of the leading electric car makers. I'm equally sure that the likes of VW Group, BMW etc will be right there with them.
I will also bet that there are going to be disruptive leaps in battery technology and maybe motors. While control systems will be polished to a high shine and available "off the shelf" like airbags are.
That's my nutshell outlook.
I can't see the "TLSA's going to be the biggest company in the WORLD" view that a friend of mine has.
Maybe... but not a bet I will take now and @ these prices.

that all depends on the vig Texas gives him, you know, 'for the move' because it's going to 'be good for Texas', and if you really examine that last, it's so nebulous, it means so much, much of it is not distinct, we're left to fill in the blanks
good for 'them', certainly, good for the citizens? like mostly all the other times, we get the mixed bag....and the bill

Neither the product nor the people are worth attracting, IMO.
The product is a sham and a scam.
The people...Elon the Musk and his parade of True Believers...every damn ONE of them, you can bet, are Hard-Left Snowflakes. Others would never have gotten hired.
I've watched Texas change, from when I lived there in 1981-82. The cities have gone Leftist; and Austin most of all. Remember the Dan Blather fake letter? As Rush Limbaugh said, during the expose of that 1973 letter done with Word, as demonstrated by conservative bloggers...he said, "All roads lead to Travis County." Mary Mapes among them...and let us not forget, Blather himself came from Austin. A teacher who wormed his way into television and was promoted four levels above his competence.
But that's the dynamic, and the crisis, of Texas today. Industrial development is good, and welcome - the San Antonio Toyota truck plant is a good thing, even if some of the Japanese quality didn't get transplanted (issues with truck frames). But Elon and his clown car, are another matter.

but he does know 'how to scale a business'
first you take the subsidy, then you take the free land, then you take the subsidy, then you take the cheap labor, then you take the subsidy, then you take the tax break
then you buy out another business, then you expand another business, then you take the subsidy, then you move

What people don't get about Tesla is how fast they are expanding production capacity with very low capex.
Their operating expenses are not increasing, despite vehicle production growing at 50-100% per year.
They already have some of the best vehicle margins in the auto industry and the margins are improving as they scale.
All about "building the machine that builds the machine."

On Twitter, Edmunds said Ford "pulled it off" and admitted they were apprehensive on the idea to turn the Mustang into an EV at first. They also said that the Mach-E "really scored" over Tesla's Model Y in handling, calling Ford's EV "vastly superior":
